Visconti Homo Sapiens Earth Origins Fountain Pen - Aether (Limited Edition)

Visconti is thrilled to announce the launch of their latest Homo Sapiens collection featuring Jonathan Brooks' industry famous hand-mixed resin: The Homo Sapiens Earth Origins 'Aether'.

In the Earth Origins collection, Visconti has paid homage to the primordial forces of nature, capturing their essence in exquisite writing instruments. Now, with the final chapter in this extraordinary journey, we introduce the ultimate element: Aether.

The Very Breath of the Universe

Aether, the quintessence of the cosmos, has been revered through the ages as the ethereal substance that fills the heavens, the very breath of the universe. Ancient philosophers and mystics believed it to be the bridge between the celestial and the terrestrial, the unseen force binding all creation.

Nobility, Wisdom and the Infinite Sky

To honor the mystique of this legendary element, the Homo Sapiens Earth Origins Aether pen is crafted from mesmerizing bluish-purple resin, a shade long associated with nobility, wisdom and the infinite sky. The celestial hue, shifting between deep violet and radiant indigo, captures the essence of the cosmic unknown.

18kt Gold Nib

At its heart, a large 18kt solid gold nib, designed to deliver an exceptional writing experience, mirrors the artistry and craftsmanship that define Visconti's legacy. Visconti's 18kt gold in-house nib hand-crafted and manufactured in Florence, Italy is available in EF, F, M, B, and Stub widths.

Double-Reservoir Power Filler

A vacuum filling system that is easy to use and has considerable benefits. Patented in 1998, this is arguably the most advanced filling system ever developed in fountain pen history. The user is able to fill the pen with the equivalent of 10 cartridges of ink, and thanks to the two reservoirs, prevents ink from leaking during air travel.

Hook Safe Lock

This revolutionary closing system is very satisfying to operate and was created to lock the pen body into the cap to prevent the possibility of the pen accidentally unscrewing and leaking inside a pocket or bag.
